About three weeks ago, we noticed a mockingbird couple fixing up an old bird nest that was leftover from last summer in one of the river birches planted around our front porch. It had been in pretty . . . more

The other day I posted some photos taken last week of the mockingbird babies that are in a nest next to our front porch. I took some more today and you can already tell a difference in the babies. . . . more

This may be a cormorant, but I'm not really sure. If it is I suppose it's an immature one. Let's see of a bird expert here knows what this may be. I spotted him last night . . . more

My new goal in life right now is to get a decent shot of a bird that is at least half as good as Sue's. (I figure if I can manage one that is at least HALF as good then I'll be doing pretty . . . more

For anyone who hasn't noticed, nearly all my bird shots are of mockingbirds, because for some reason that's all we have here at our house. Well, today I discovered what's REALLY going . . . more

This morning standing in the kitchen making coffee, I saw Mallard ducks on the lake. In the group was a white duck with a black head. I have never seen one like this before. My excitement cannot be understated. . . . more

Filling up the feeders in the winter is a pain, but is truly worth it. The birds were having a Christmas party out there this morning. The house finches with their red looking vibrant.

Today was in the high 50's and sunny, although a bit windy. The deeper part of the lake is still frozen, the wind was whipping the water. The seagulls love the wind and are fun to watch.

We love birds. We can sit for hours watching our birdfeeder. When we moved into this house we were blessed with a pair of Sandhill Cranes that nested close to our yard. We watched the baby . . . more

For the past two weeks we've been noticing these very odd-looking white birds strutting around in all the fields around here. I had no idea what they were, and none of them were ever in the . . . more

This is the first chance I've gotten to take some shots of the hummingbirds at our feeder with my new camera. Unfortunatley the shutter speed isn't as fast as I wish it was, so they're not . . . more
